Moments of tension are experienced in Manchester after the United captain has been threatened in his own home. According to information published by the British tabloids, Harry Maguire reportedly received an email that forced the security forces to immediately intervene at his home and investigate what happened.

“In the last 24 hours, Harry has received a serious threat to his family's home. You have reported this to the police who are now investigating the matter. The safety of his family and those around him is obviously Harry's number one priority,” said a spokesman for the 29-year-old footballer who lives at home with his fiancée and two daughters.

It was an anonymous bomb threat sent from an e-mail that triggered the alerts. The officers came in with sniffer dogs to find out if there was an explosive device placed on the scene. There is still no information about the results returned by this search.

The footballer's spokesman indicated that Maguire “will continue to prepare for this weekend's match normally” and that they will not comment further on it. Manchester United will clash this Saturday against Arsenal in London, a crucial match for the aspirations of both teams ahead of the end of the current season.

It is that the team led by German Ralf Rangnick is sixth in the Premier League with 54 units, in a position that would give him a ticket to the next Conference League. For its part, Arsenal has 57 units and is fifth, in the same vein as Tottenham, which for now is taking the fourth ticket to the Champions League for having a better goal difference.
